Fave Striped Top

Pattern: Tessuti's Fave Top (free pattern!)
Material: jersey knit
Cost: $10


Sometimes, an inspiration pic matches so closely with a pattern that it's just too perfect. Case in point: my new striped top. This dress and the Tessuit Fave top pattern are such a close match that you almost feel like cheating. But after months of coveting this outfit on my Pinterest feed, I knew that the Tessuti pattern would be an easy way to make it a reality. And did I mention the pattern is free?!


This is my second version of this top (find the first one here), and I love it. It's comfy, stylish, and easy to wear. I'm not going to lie, but I've had it on all weekend ;)



To make, all you have to do is sew the front and pack pieces together (again, I didn't quite have enough fabric for the full design - darn!). I then did a rolled hem on my serger, a neckband for the top, and hemmed the sleeves. While the design is just a really simple batwing, I love how it drapes!




Don't be surprised if you see another one of these in my future, but for now I'm out of fabric!
